Would this work with TDE?
by dep 13 Aug '24

13 Aug '24

Greets, everybody . . . Insomnia led me to this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6C8QTf7GLfs In case you don't want to watch it (though Christopher Barnatt is highly enjoyable), it is the quick and easy construction of an ARM desktop PC, which seems pretty cool and which is both inexpensive and uses next to no electricity. It automagically installs Debian with KDE. My desktop machine is approaching 10 years old. Some drives will need replacement soon. Seeing this video, I wondered if a different approach might be in order. But I'm unclear as to the cross compatibility of the architectures. There are a few concerns I have, the two main ones being the Proton applications and TDE. (I've been spoiled in that almost everything -- but not Proton stuff -- has worked perfectly on the Raspberry Pi.) So, there being substantial knowledge here, I have a question: Why is it a bad idea to build an ARM-based desktop machine? Thanks. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/

Global config file for kate styles?
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 12 Aug '24

12 Aug '24

Hi all! Does somebody know where I can add global syntax highlighing styles for kate? IMO the users styles are created in /etc/trinity/katesyntaxhighlightingrc by the first invocation of /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/libkatepart.so. But I did bot find a config file where these globals come from or where to change/add styles. Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

korganizer bug? Can someone let me know if this works for them?
by Jim 06 Aug '24

06 Aug '24

Hi, According to the manual for korganizer, I can add another calendar ("resource") to my view as follows: Procedure 3.1. Adding a New KOrganizer Resource If the resource view is not available on KOrganizer's sidebar, choose the Settings->Sidebar->Show Resource View menu item to display it. However, when I go to Settings->Sidebar there is no "Show Resource View" there. This is TDE 14.1.1 running on Slackware64. Can someone who uses korganizer (or wants to fire it up) tell me if they see a resource view anywhere. Thanks. Jim

New Debian-based Trinity Live ISO
by jacobheinrich＠hotmail.com 04 Aug '24

04 Aug '24

Hey everyone, I was installing Trinity on a new laptop the other day and realized "Wow, I don't enjoy the process of installing an OS and DE separately". So I decided to take it upon myself and create a live-build of Debian with my favorite software included. So far the website is a work in progress, but the Iatest built ISO is fully functional so far. It is a mostly stock Debian install with Trinity and a few configuration changes for a fully working system out of the box. You can download it at: https://DildOS.wiki DildOS stands for "Damn I Love Debian Operating System"

no tab completion
by Felix Miata 30 Jul '24

Using apt or apt-get, package name tab completion works as expected on ttys, but not in Konsole. Is this just me? just Trixie? just Debian? other distros? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

hybrid hibernate/suspend
by Uwe Brauer 29 Jul '24

29 Jul '24

I have problems with the mailing list, that's why I try it now via the newsgroup channel. Hi I just saw in the trinity powersafe app the option hybrid suspend. Unfortunately the option is in grey, meaning that something is not installed or configured. Does anybody know about this?

Hi In Ubuntu 24.04 with trinity installed notifications, such as, «you are not connected to Wifi Net....» Are shown with an icon that contains a white sheet. What pkg I did not install?

problems with apt & aptitude
by William Morder 15 Jul '24

15 Jul '24

The electric power went out in my building overnight while I was asleep, having left my laptop running, and when I awoke I couldn't boot it up again, but was forced to reinstall my system. (And here was I just congratulating myself on having gone about 8 months without any major changes, much less disasters.) My installation did not go well. Maybe it's because I hadn't done it in awhile; as well as the fact that I am too busy to be bothered with this crap just now, yet I still need a working machine in order to keep my life together. In all, I think I tried 11 times (yes, eleven!) to get my system reinstalled and reconfigured. It doesn't go so well when there are other important matters that also claim my attention. The problems with reinstallation do not seem to involve Trinity as such. For some unknown reason, the XFCE desktop has messed up my settings, so that I was unable to find my network, etc.; so instead, I used MATE to finish the installation, then installed my TDE packages. After I got to that stage, I was back in familiar territory, and all seemed to be going well.... Anyway, so I got it up and running, everything looks right, just finishing up, installing all those other packages that can wait. And now, I get this weird error message: sudo apt-get -f install apt-get: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapt-private.so.0.0: undefined symbol: _ZN11pkgDepCache24IncreaseActionGroupLevelEv, version APTPKG_6.0 I don't know what this means, and I am unable to use apt utilities, apt-get, aptitude, etc. I can still install packages using dpkg, but without knowing how to solve this problem, it seems pointless to keep on trying to make it work. After 11 attempts at reinstallation throughout today, I am at my wits' end, and really do not want to undertake yet another reinstallation. If anybody knows of a way to solve this issue, I will be for ever grateful. Bill
